I think there's been a miscommunication somewhere along the track.
I don't have the later volumes of IM handy right now, but IIRC in one
of the later volumes RMF says that nowadays since our matzot are too
small for everyone to eat from the one ke'ara, each son should have
his own ke'ara and should share his matzot with one of his sisters.
Taking matzot from the box is only to be done if this is not practical.
But if one does take matzot from the box, then it makes sense that
there's no need for two kezeitim (I don't recall whether this too
is in IM, or it's my own svara, but it seems to me irrefutable).
